Sean MacPherson To Snatch Up Crow's Nest Hotel In Montauk

While everyone awaits the reopening of Jane Ballroom (soon, we promise), owner Sean MacPherson (of the Hotels Bowery and Jane and the Waverly Inn among others) has another trick up his sleeve. While laying the groundwork for GofG Hamptons, we heard rumors of a new MacPherson restaurant in Montauk. We just checked in with the man himself....

MacPherson has indeed bought The Crow's Nest, which is "nestled in a small private secluded cove" right by the Montauk lighthouse.

And while Crow's Nest is a restaurant (MacPherson and crew have spent the past six months working on a menu), it looks like Jamie Mulholland's Surf Lodge might have some competition on "The End."

Says MacPherson:

"We bought it and I plan on doing it and we will run it as is this season and reopen it as the new, improved Crow's Nest next season."

Exciting, especially as it tops off 10 years of negotiations between MacPherson and the property.
